My goal is a 5am workout and I'm enjoying more energy. This morning, I got up at 4:15 because I wanted to get a little more in plus I had to get 10 mins on the step master and 10 mins on the elliptical. I did JM 30 DS and added weights using the bench & bicep curls. Tonight, I need to do a short workout 30 mins to do the things I did not have a chance to fit in since I'm on such a tight schedule in the morning. Today is Day 2 of My Smaller Black Dress 30 Day Challenge and this weekend, I had no issues saying NO to cake, brownies or the pastries. I enjoyed grilled chicken instead of Popeyes Fried and Kale Salad instead of fresh rolls and taco salad. I'm proud of the choices I made I just need to figure out how to get in more calories and stay clean.

    I made the whole day eating healthy! I am doing this! I had hummus and cottage cheese and Greek yogurt for my main proteins. Back when I worked at Life Time Fitness I asked the corporate body builders for advice on what protein mix I should use for losing weight. They suggested I use Champion Nutrition's Ultramet vanilla cream as my base for smoothies. It has 25 g protein, 1 g fat, 1 g fiber, 4 g sugar, 17 g total carbohydrate with lots of vitamins and minerals. I mix it with water and lots of frozen fruit for the best smoothie that tastes so-o-o-o-o-o good!

    I can't wait to see the smoothie recipes you're suggesting.:flowerforyou:
